Fedora 7 Excitement Begins

02-01-2007, 10:17 AM

F7 Test 1 is finally shipping in about an hour from now... though that hasn't stopped me from going through all of the mirrors looking for an open mirror (I didn't get any early copy). I found one open mirror in Taiwan, but that one was corrupted and the DVD ended up being 1GB Then I ended up finding a US one with open-access to 32-bit disc 1! So I downloaded that to at least take a look at Anaconda, but then that broke after 10MB.

I think I'll just wait another 45 minutes for the official mirrors to open. Though next time I'll just code a program to traverse all official mirrors looking for early access.

I downloaded the installer dvd. I could not install on an nf7-s (Barton 3200+) computer, seems like pata devices were not recognized. Tomorrow I will try installing on an Intel platform P4 XE@3.73ghz and an Asus p5wd2 Premium.
